IMPORTANT POLICIES 

All registration transfers must be approved and processed through High Five Events and the Austin International Half.

  • Anyone caught attempting to sell or transfer their race entry/bib to another person outside of this process will have their registration revoked, be disqualified, and removed from the race. They will also be prohibited from participating in future events owned or produced by High Five Events.
  • Similarly, anyone attempting to participate in the event using another participant’s race entry/bib will face the same penalties.

Transfers can only be requested up to the deadlines listed on the event website. Requests cannot be processed for an event that has already taken place.

This policy is subject to change at any time. Updates may be made to reflect changes in ticket availability, operational requirements, or unforeseen circumstances. These adjustments may include modifications to deadlines, fees, or procedures to ensure the smooth operation of the event and to accommodate evolving logistical or safety considerations. Participants are encouraged to regularly review the event website for the most up-to-date information regarding policies and procedures.
